受到塞缪尔回答的启发，我写了一个改进版本:

当扩展名是大写时也适用。 以文件名为输入，优雅地处理没有扩展名的文件。 不要在键中包含“。”。 列表，为此我编写了一个小型转换脚本。

最终的源代码超过30K个字符，所以我不能张贴在这里，在Github上检查它。

如果有人能在linux上使用libmagic类似的功能，那就更好了，因为我认为这是一种比依赖文件扩展名更好的检测文件类型的方法。

例如，如果我将一个文件从myppicture .jpg重命名为myppicture .txt 在linux上，它仍然会被报告为一张图片 但是在这里使用这种方法，它将被报告为文本文件。

我已经编译了一个有名的mime类型和内容类型值的来源列表，这些值仅以文件扩展名为键(目前)。

nuget包在这里https://www.nuget.org/packages/FTTLib.dll/

来源在这里https://github.com/brondavies/filetypetranslator/

这个库被设计成:

无外部依赖 没有文件系统访问权限 内存占用小 简单的静态方法(没有扩展方法和可实例化类) 不区分大小写 可移植-工作在应用程序针对任何CLR(。NET 2.0 +)

这个helper类返回任何文件名的mime类型(内容类型)、描述和图标:

}

用法:

string fileName = "NotExists.txt";
string contentType = Helper.GetFileContentType(fileName); // "text/plain"
string description = Helper.GetFileDescription(fileName); // "Text Document"
Icon smallIcon, largeIcon;
Helper.GetFileIcons(fileName, out smallIcon, out largeIcon); // 16x16, 32x32 icons

我已经编写了一个程序来获取和转换Apache mime。类型文件到c#字典<字符串，字符串>的关键文件扩展名。这里的。

实际的输出是这个文件(但是您可能希望获取它并再次运行它，以防Apache文件在我上次运行之后已经更新)。

public static Dictionary<string, string> MimeTypes = new Dictionary<string, string>
{
  { "123", "application/vnd.lotus-1-2-3" },
  { "3dml", "text/vnd.in3d.3dml" },
  { "3g2", "video/3gpp2" },
  { "3gp", "video/3gpp" },
  { "7z", "application/x-7z-compressed" },
  { "aab", "application/x-authorware-bin" },
  { "aac", "audio/x-aac" },
  { "aam", "application/x-authorware-map" },
  { "aas", "application/x-authorware-seg" },
  { "abw", "application/x-abiword" },
  ...

. net框架提供了获取mime类型的内置方法。不需要编写自定义代码。

string mimeType = System.Web.MimeMapping.GetMimeMapping(fileName);
